Swiss Alps

Today we went on an amazing hike in the Swiss alps. I swear I will live there when I grow up (or at least visit). First we took a twoish hour car ride to the bottom of the Alps, than we took the ski lift up. The ride up was a little over 5 minutes, much longer than any skillful back home. At the top we started hiking and hiked up, to the right, and circled back to a stop at the chairlift. This was about a four hour hike and, though I was sore at the end, I loved every second. When we reached the top again we rented bike scoters to ride down, this was a blast. We were on patched roads, gravel, and everything in between. At one point we stopped at the side by a small stream and just drank strait from it because the water is that fresh. I had so much fun and cannot express my awe and thanks enough to my host family!!!

This is where we drank out of the stream
